Score prediction thread for SMU

[winlots]

It's the Mustangs turn to come up our way; hard for weather to deter the herd. Always one of my favorite team nicknames all the way back to childhood because of the images elicited, the Mustangs surprisingly feature Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as their team colors.

SMU had some extraordinary backs in the old days. Two of the best also had solid SW style first names: Kyle Rote and Doak Walker, each of whom starred back around WWII, with at least one having his career interrupted to serve. One of them had a brother killed on Iwo Jima....not sure which was which. In those days, we were truly one nation, and virtually everyone pitched in for the common good, in whatever way they could during WWII. Many sacrifices.....and much pride.

As always: who wins it, by what margin of victory, and if needed to break a tie,, what will the actual score be?
Good luck and/or much wisdom.

Uconn will be affected by the snow to great lengths. It will paralyze their offense and make their feet freeze on defense. They will avoid great embarrassment though through extraordinary effort.

UConn 140-2

 

[Husky fanatic]

Agent 99 calling in pick for win 99:

Tempted to go with 99 points for UConn, but Geno takes out starters earlier than usual.

UConn 90, SMU 45.

 

[WiseOne]

94-52 UCONN

 

[Carnac]

Massey sez.....UConn (23-0) 88 - SMU (13-10) 38 with a 100% chance of UConn winning.

The envelope says.........................UConn 91 - SMU 41 MOV= 50

UConn 98 to SMU49. Geno will not let the starters go beyond the third quarter.

 

[Gmoney]

UConn 93 - 55

 

[NewCorn]

UConn 101 - 46 . Mustang in the wrong place at the wrong time. Recall insured for Mustangs to fix fast break leak.

 

[Ozimoto]

UConn has been pretty consistent with scoring in the mid 90's recently and holding opponents to around 50. The game is at 2pm so the early game sluggish start should not be a problem. Starters will be pulled around the end of the third quarter, early fourth quarter in consideration of the Monday game against South Carolina.

The bench continues to improve.

UConn wins 95 to 48 for a MOV of 47 points.

 

[2ndCity]

UConn: 99 - SMU: 50. MOV: 49

Kyle and Doak---I could not have found SMU on a map with a seeing eye dog--but I knew Kyle, Doak and SMU --as a heretic Catholic--I followed that Southern Methodist University in football. I followed them religiously (pun intended) on WFSB TV and Sat Channel 1001.2b Mickey O'Rourke did the commercials. (Mayo??)
Thanks Winslot for the History lesson.
